Spotlight

“COD is one of the premier colleges in the country. If you come here, get involved, whether it is with the COD vets club or with any club. You need to get involved with like-minded individuals to make the best of your college career.”

“COD is offering me an excellent opportunity to achieve a competitive academic resume with great credit transferability. I never could have imagined myself performing as well as I have been in college, and I owe much of my success to the great faculty members on campus.”

“The Veterans Services office in particular has provided so much guidance in terms of my military benefits and how to use them. They have been very patient and helpful along the way and answered any questions I’ve had. They also introduced me to new programs and classes that cater to veterans, which was unheard of to me before COD. It’s an amazing opportunity and affordable. If you’re a veteran, you will receive a terrific amount of help and attention in order to complete your goals.”
